Homecoming: 'Past Is Prologue'
Weekend Theme Offers
Historical Commentary
A "Past Prologue" of Bethel's development will be presented Fri-day,
October 15, at 7:30 p.m. in the Fieldhouse Auditorium as part of
the 1965 Homecoming activities.
The program, staged by Mr. Rott and speech students, attempts to
help bring about an understanding of the present by selecting mile-stones
in Bethel's history and either commenting on them or allowing
the situations to comment on themselves.
"By understanding the past, we know the present," explained
Miriam Carlson, co-chairman of the Homecoming activities.
This year's program is unique for a variety of dramatic techniques
are being used. The opening scene will feature a narration by J. David
Patterson and Bernard Johnson.
Following will be speech choruses, pantomines, other narrations,
drama scenes, oral interpretations, projective slides, music, and tape
recordings. These will be interwoven throughout the program to provide
variety and change of pace.
Using these media, comments will be made on Bethel's academic
history, campus development, and equisition of property. A commen-tary
on different periods of national stress, such as the post-Civil War
era, will be made, with reflection directed also on cultural and moral
changes throughout Bethel's history.
Specific scenes will portray the
first seminary student, the college's
first president, the starting of a
co-op food service at Bethel, and
the moral issue of the 1920's con-cerning
the length of women's
hair.
The presentation of the Home-coming
Court and the coronation
of the queen will be integrated in-to
the program.
The program will be followed at
9:00 p.m. by a campus pepfest to
be held at the south end of the
fieldhouse.
Alumni Banquet
Saturday Night
"Past Prologue" will be high-lighted
by the Homecoming Ban-quet.
Rev. and Mrs. Featherstone
will be host and hostess. Special
Music will be presented by the
Chrismon Quartet.
This weekend will see many of
Bethel's almni returning to campus
for the Homecoming festivities—a
time of renewing old friendships
and reliving memories.
Host and hostess for the activi-ties
will be Rev. and Mrs. Robert
Featherstone. R e v. Featherstone
was appointed host last July by
Bethel's Alumni Council and has
been preparing programs with the

night.
Rev. Featherstone graduated from
Bethel seminary in 1955. In his
senior year at the seminary he
was Acting Dean of Students for
the College and went on to be
Stewardship Director for the Bap-tist
General Conference. He is now
pastor of the first Baptist Church
of Rochester, Minnesota and is a
member of the Alumni Council.
Beginning alumni activities will
be the Homecoming chapels Fri-day

speak at the Seminary.
Following Friday night's pro-gram
and pepfest, the alumni
and parents will get together
for their traditional coffee hours.
President Lundquist will speak
briefly at the informal gather-ings.
Highlight of the weekend will
be Saturday night's banquet. Of
special interest at the banquet
will be the announcement of the
first Alumnus of the Year. The
selection is made by the Alumni
Awards Committee composed of
three members of the Alumni
Council, three alumni-at-large,
and one faculty member.
The Alumnus of the year is
chosen on the basis of the follow-i
n g considerations: outstanding
achievement within the alumnus'
chosen field of endeavor, signifi-cant
contributions and public ser-vice
benefitting his community,
continued interest and loyalty to
Bethel.
Rev. Akenson, Pastor of the first
Baptist Church of Minneapolis, will
keynote the Banquet with his din-ner
address. He is a former Presi-dent
of Northwestern Bible Col-lege
and is presently Chairman
of the Board of Northwestern Bible
College.
All students, whether they at-tend
the banquet or not, are invited
to hear this dinner address at 8:00
Saturday evening in the Fieldhouse.
Business will be keyed to the
Alumni. Rodney Erickson will pre-side.
Alumni news will be re-ported
to the Alumni Association.
As the program is a special
alumni event, the ticket sales will
be split in half between the stu-dent
body and alumni.
New Seminary
To Be Dedicated
October 17, 1965, marks the
dedication, throughout the Baptist
General Conference, of the new
Arden Hills campus of Bethel
Theological Seminary. Each Con-ference
church throughout t h e
world has been requested to par-ticipate
vicariously in its own ser-vice
of dedication.
At three o'clock the program
will begin at the Arden Hills Cam-pus
with the Ceremony of the Keys,
where the keys for the buildings
will be transferred from Ragner
Borg, Contractor, to President
Lundquist.
Greetings by Governor Karl
Rolvaag of Minnesota will be fol-lowed
by the Act of Dedication
led by Dean Gordon Johnson of
the Seminary. During the Act of
Dedication, the faculty will pro-cess
and a Bible will be placed
in the entry pavilion.
The Male Chorus led by C.
Howard Smith will present two
numbers, "All Blessing, Honor,
Thanks and Praise," and "I Will
Extol Thee, 0 Lord."
The flag and flagpole, a gift
to the Seminary by alumni serving
as Chaplains, will be dedicated by
Major Carl J. Bergstrom, assisted
by Chaplain Bruce Herrstrom.
The Promise of the Foundation
will begin with a pledge led by
Lloyd Dahlquist, General Secre-tary
of Baptist General Con-ference.
Following this Dolan
Toth, treasurer of the Board of
Education, will lead the congre-gation
in prayer. An offering
will also be taken.
The final part of the ceremony

American 'Containment' Policy Called
Contributing Factor In Asian Conflict
This is the second in a series of two articles
by college senior David Beek on the India-Pakistan
Dispute.
He has recently returned from a year of study
and research near Hyderabad, South India.
by Dave Beek
The United States' foreign policy in Asia has
been more responsible for the recent conflict between
India and Pakistan than most Americans realize or
are willing to, admit.
After the tragic events accompanying partition,
India and Pakistan turned to the urgent problems
of nation building and domestic development. The
domestic needs were so momentous that neither
could afford diverting resources for defense pur-poses.
By following a "non-aligned" policy in the bi-polar
world, they sought to reduce the tension
between themselves and to avoid becoming involved
in the Soviet-American duel.
The United States, in self-interest, was urging
the non-aligned Asian countries to accept American
military aid and to join security pacts for protection
against Communist aggression.
Nehru asked the United States not to give
military aid to either India or Pakistan; he warned
that this would eventually be used, not against Russian
or Chinese aggression, but against each other. The
United States ignored his plea.
India resisted American pressures until after
the Chinese invasions of 1959 and 1962. Pakistan,
due to its more Islamic, militaristic tradition and
to its felt inferior position, having only one quarter
the population of India, yielded in 1954 by accept-ing
American armaments and bases and by joining
SEATO and CENTO.
Indian-Pakistan and Indian-American tensions rose
sharply. India was forced to seek protection against
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Ban-tan
Books, 1946, pp. 177 (paperback; $.60).
Abolition of Man by C. S. Lewis. Macmillan,
1947, pp. 121 (paperback, $.95).
Utilitarianism and theism are
strange bed-fellows, but Huxley and
Lewis belong side by side on your
book shelf.
Lewis' starting point is an Eng-lish
reader which he calls The
Green Book by Gaius and Titius.
His theme is the total absurdity of
the current theory, "all statements
of value are totally subjective."
Therefore "mother" is of no
more or less value than God,
pleasure, treason, objectivity, or
life. "But this is not necessarily
a refutation of subjectivism
about values as a theory. The
true doctrine might be a docrine
which, if we accept, we die" (p.
39).
Lewis criticizes the subjectivists
further because, "However subjec-tive
they may be about some tradi-tional
value, Gaius and Titius have
shown by the very act of writing
The Green Book that there must
be some other values about which
they are not subjective at all" (p.
39).
So where do they find non-sub-jective
values—in some statement
of fact? But how does 'ought' come
from 'is'? Perhaps instinct is a
proper base. But our instincts are
very much at war. Which ones?
Unless we admit that there are
some values which need no ra-tional
defense—which are the
very foundation of all reason—
we shall be totally at the mercy
of our desires.
Lewis argues that the result
of man's conquest of nature is
the dehumanization of man. Man
is regarded as an animal fit for the
dissecting table or for laboratory
experiments.
The government will be able to
condition man as the psychology
department conditions pigeons. In
other words, a sort of Brave New
World. If there is no value how
shall the conditioners choose to
mold men? They do as they wish.
"We find ... (the Conditioners)
subjected to that in themselves
which is purely 'natural' — to
their irrational impulses" (p. 80).
"It is not that they are bad men.
They are not men at all" (p. 77).
The case is clear. Unless there is
some eternal good, true, and beau-tiful
(which he calls "Tao") we face
meaninglessness. The modern
world trades the threat of hell for
the certainty of non-existence.
Huxley sees the same vision of
man's predicament. Man is con-quered
by men who use science as
wizards use magic—as an instru-ment
of personal power.
Men sacrifice their freedom and
art for stability and contentment.
Society is sterile and antiseptic
without purity. Science is not for
man, but man for science.
In the foreword to this edition
Huxley gives an alternative to

of life being: "How will
this thought or action contribute
to, or interfere with, the achieve-ment,
by me and the greatest
possible number of other indi-viduals,
of man's Final End?" (p.
ix.)
The resemblance between Huxley
and Lewis is elusive. Both use the
term "Tao" for the universe's non-personal
moral order. Both charge
scientism with abolishing man.
Neither holds with the confident
intellectual climate of the day.
But to try to make Huxley a
Christian apologist is to fail. He
proposes to substitute Brave New
World for a pure atheistic humani-tarianism.

Recent College Changes
Reflect 'Prologue' Spirit
Homecoming 1965 will go down as a major step forward in
the unification of the Baptist General Conference with its
institutions of higher education.
Seminary Dedication Sunday morning will dawn upon the
unique occurance of pastors around the nation leading their
congregations in simultaneous words of dedication while in St.
Faul the capstone of our educational program is realized.
Meanwhile, alumni, parents, and friends of Bethel con-verge
on the college campus to consider the next seven years
on this campus as a special prologue, in the context of the
past, to the erection of the new college complex in the
Centennial Year.
Several bright spots of the recent past spring to mind: The,
continuing strong relationship between college and seminary
in this first year of separation, college library improvements in
space and planning, and the institution of a summer Student
Missionary Program.
And if these gains of the past year or two are indicative of
the type of growth to be expected in the seven year Prologue
to the new Bethel College, the future of Christian higher
education in the evangelical tradition of our Swedish forefathers
is bright indeed.
The incorporation of greater numbers of qualified sem-inarians
into the college educational program as instructors
and discussion leaders is to be applauded.
May it be followed by upper division inter-disciplinary
seminars which ultimately find their connecting links in de-votion
to the same Truth—perhaps through the leadership of
men thoroughly trained in theology and Biblical studies as
well as advanced study in their chosen discipline.
The provision of more floor and shelf space in the college
library as well as the creation of the joint cataloguing system
are worthy of praise. May they be followed by increased co-operation
and working relationships among the private colleges
of the Twin Cities, such as inter-college borrowing cards.
Macalester, Hamline, St. Thomas and St. Catherine's, for
instance, now share supporting resource facilities for their
newly inaugurated, co-operative area studies program.
And the purchase of a card catalogue listing the main
holdings of the James Hill Reference Library can be seen in
the light of convenience for advanced research on this campus,
and good stewardship and planning for the Arden Hills campus.
The Chapel Committee, too, deserves praise for the various
successful ventures of the student missionaries. May the pro-gram
be expanded in coming years to other hemispheres, per-haps
with tuition breaks for returning missionaries and more
systematic back-to-the community reporting of projects.
And may a large advance orientation period in the history
and culture of the respective countries, as well as more solidly
defined academic pursuits in the countries, yield opportunities
to introduce the new Bethel College to potential foreign
students around the world.
Pakistan by accepting British aid. As the arms race
between the two countries quickened, it became
increasingly difficult to settle the Kashmir problem
peacefully.
Nehru's prophecy was fulfilled, when during the
recent Indian-Pakistan conflict, the massive military
aid was used against each other.
When assessing American foreign policy during
the fifties, one wonders what blinded the American
people from seeing these realities of international
politics.
A major factor was a schizophrenic view of the
world: the extremes of pessimism and optimism, the
paradoxical concentration on certain facts, on the
one hand, and complete disregard for certain facts
on the other hand. The simple, single tracked Ameri-can
mind related the major evils of the world to
Communism.
On the one hand, our optimism saw an ideal
world rid of the major evils with the destruction of
Communism. Our faith in the peace loving nature
of countries absent of Communist influence overrode
entirely such inescapable facts as the Hindu-Moslem
conflict in 1947 which killed a half million persons
and displaced ten million more in the two countries.
On the other hand, our overly pessimistic view
of the world led many Americans to believe the
non-American countries confronted by a Communist
power were essentially puppets of a Satanic power.
A large portion of the American people believed
that they were a chosen people, the chosen guard-ians
of the good in the world. This self-conceit, no
doubt, grew out of being over-awed by our military
power.

Missionary-In-Residence Edwards
Teaches Seminary During Furlough
Rev. Paul Edwards, missionary
from India, will teach in Bethel
Theological Seminary both winter
and spring quarters.
Rev. Edwards holds a B.A. de-gree
from Wheaton and a B.D.
from Bethel Seminary. He also has
a M.A. from George Washington
University, where he studied Com-parative
Religions.
Bethel College alumni will re-member
Rev. Edwards as a
Bethel Bible teacher and basket-ball
and baseball coach from
1944-1950.
It was in 1950 that Rev. Edwards
left for India where he has con-tinued
to serve. His work has
included both educational and ev-angelistic
ministries. Mrs. Edwards
is a medical doctor and has faith-fully
served with her husband on
the mission field. They are now
back in the States on their second
furlough.
The two classes that Rev. Ed-wards
will teach in the Seminary
are Challenge to World Missions
and Challenge of Non-Christian Re-ligions.
These will be taught win-
How to Become a Bishop Without Being
Religious by Charles Merrill Smith. Doubleday,
1965 ($3.50).
This latest "success manual" is a
tragedy.
It claims to give the single sem-inarian
the steps to success in
climbing the clerical ladder. It ana-lyzes
the proper methods of letting
sleeping congregations lie and
overcoming the antagonism or com-peting
clerics.
Charles Merrill Smith is pastor
of the Wesley Methodist Church
in Bloomington, Illinois. He "has
a lover's quarrel with the
church" and HOW TO BECOME
... is both the better and the
worse for it.
First, the virtues of this book:
its satire is to the point—and the
right points too. There are several
subtitles from Chapter Four, "The
Administration of a Church, which
is a polite phrase for raising mon-ey:
The status church ... Picking
the right Negro ... The men to cul-tivate."
"Selecting the Clerical Wife"
would seem to be a vital chapter
for the single theologue. Smith
argues here that the prospective
minister MUST marry; secondly,
that he will be well advised to
avoid certain kinds of girls; third,
that he ought to seek one who
wants to marry a minister.
Therefore "the proper se-quence
of events is to select a
girl who meets the predetermin-ed
specifications and then fall in
love with her, rather than allow
your romantic fancy to light
upon just any young female who
happens to appeal to you for ir-relevant
reasons" (p. 21).
Smith also jibes at subject-cen-tered
worship, provides a key to
properly "spiritual" words, and
outlines "the techniques of being
unmistakably clerical!)
The breadth of Smith's discus-sion
includes all the appropriate
concerns of a "standard-brand"
minister: choosing a car, non-of-fensive
art, and "making the major
leagues." His perception is acute,
but his satire is merely broad.
This is the principle artistic
attempt to satirize all the aspects
of clerical life makes this appear
ter and spring quarters, respective-ly.
Rev. Edwards hopes to encour-age
the Seminary students to be-come
more deeply involved in the
global outreach of the church.
He wants the students to be
aware of the problems of reach-ing
a foreign culture. He is
greatly concerned about the sta-tistical
decline in applicants to
the mission field, and envisions

A devoted pessimist would hard-ly
have risked "Christian back-lash"
for the sake of such hyper-bole.

European Study
Plan Announced
Miss Barbara Weiss, field repre-sentative
of the Scandinavian Sem-inar,
visits Bethel campus Wednes-day,
October 20, to interest stu-dents
and faculty in a new educa-tional
adventure.
The program she promotes pro-vides
students with the opportunity
to attend school in Denmark, Fin-land,
Norway, or Sweden for nine
months while living with a native
family.
Information on location and
time will be posted when estab-lished.
Requests for personal in-terviews
with Miss Weiss are
handled through the Student
Service office.
The nine-month study program,
from August to May, is open to stu-dents
without previous knowledge
in the language. The applicant re-ceives
appropriate instructional
material upon acceptance to ac-quire
workable skills in the lan-guage.
With a grasp of the language
and a feeling for the Scandin-avian
world, the student benefits
from the FOLKEHOJSKOLE'S
presentation o f Scandinavia
through lectures, discussions,
seminars and tours.
The Scandinavian Seminar or-ganization

available to students needing finan-cial
assistance. The interest-free
loans are payable three years after
termination of the student's study
year.
part of his task here as recruit-ment.
Rev. Edwards' presence on the
Seminary campus is viewed as a
definite aid to the students by pro-viding
a meaningful encounter with
the problems and challenges of the
mission field. He will be a signifi-cant
asset to the kind of prepara-tion
that is being fostered by the
Seminary educational program.
their performances on the verbal
section of the Scholastic Aptitude
Test, and sufficient correlation ex-ists
to demonstrate the validity of
the examination.
A mastery of the content of this
program affords the student a
minimum comprehension of Eng-lish
grammar and usage essential
to his performing acceptably in
college work.
Inasmuch as the English Depart-ment
is insufficiently staffed to do
remedial teaching and inasmuch
as the material can be mastered
with greater facility by the pro-grammed
approach, no portion of
the classroom time of the course
is allocated to teaching from this
textbook.
Six special help sessions, how-ever,
have been scheduled either
on Saturday mornings or on free
periods during the week to deal
with student questions. The in-structors
in the English Depart-ment
are also available to give
individual help.
Registration for Freshman Eng-lish
103 is considered probation-ary
until the student demon-strated
his minimum proficiency
in the rudiments of English
grammar and usage.
Hence, those whose scores were
poor on the first examination must
perform satisfactorily on the retest
in order to validate their registra-tion
in the course. Students who
are unable to do so will be asked
to drop Freshman English 103 and
may not register for Freshman
English 104.

Wednesday, October 13, 1965
Staunch Dodger fans gathered at
the Hotel St. Paul to greet the
players as they returned from the
first and unsuccessful Series game.
Many of the approximately thirty
Bethel students were native Calif-ornians.
They wanted the team to
know there was an enthusiastic, if
small, group of fans even in the
Twins' own territory.
The escapade began when fresh-man
Barbara Elliff called the
hotel early Wednesday morning
to arrange an appointment for
an interview. She talked first
with Johnny Roseboro, whom she
had awaken with the call. He
referred her to Wally Moon,
Dodger player representative.
Barb told him that even though
the group of supporters was in the
minority, they were "pluggin' all
the way." "That s right ma am,
everything is going to be all right!"
The students, congregated in the
lobby of the hotel at four-thirty
with souvenir baseballs in hand.
After a forty-five minute wait, the
players arrived and though disap-pointed
with the results of the
game, stopped to sign autographs.
son be the person tentatively
considered as the next editor.
One gets the feeling after at-tending
a few senate meetings,
that the majority of items each
week mold themselves into a tow-ering
monument of indecision.
They tell me this is a hazard of
democratic government.
Perhaps postponement of issues
is a good thing since it gives sen-ators
a chance to think things
through. As a matter of fact, this
very thing is written into the
rules of order.
Only when one leaves a sen-ate
meeting in a state of utter
confusion does he question whe-ther
or not democracy is func-tionally
adequate in all situa-tions..
One thing is certain, however,
and that concerns the matter of
disappearing trays. The snow isn't
even flying yet, gang; let's eat on
trays at least until that time!
Jim Lefebvre, candidate for Rookie
of the Year of 1965, quipped that
it was "just one of those days."
Later in the evening Wally
Moon spoke to Barb Elliff, Cindi
Weddle, Lyn Eichenberger, and
Anita Palm in a personal inter-view.
Knowing the mechanical
responses to the game already,
questions were aimed at finding
deeper feelings.
He said the team morale was not
like a college level team spirit that
must be worked up every Friday
night. After a period of time, a
player on a professional level
learns to always be "psyched" for
a game.
Venturing deeper, it was asked,
"What is the religious spirit of the
team?" In answering, he said sev-eral
of the men on the team were
"deeply religious" although the
subject was rarely discussed.
He himself is a Methodist and
a member of the Fellowship of
Christian Athletes with about
five other team members. Reli-gious
influence, he felt, w a s
best seen in each player's re-action
to practice and game sit-uations.
Self-control is probably
the hardest virtue to come by
and is "a real test of religious
training."
Having this insight of a baseball
team and having briefly glimps-ed
its members, in a once in a
lifetime experience, the weary
Bethelites returned to campus to
write jealous brothers and friends.
AsianlMisuse
cont'd from page 2
Moslem violence in Bengal was
overlooked by most Americans.
America's policy of relying on
military force in South Asia de-feated
America's goals, by aliena-ting,
first, India and more recently,
Pakistan. More tragic yet for the
entire world, it forced India to
forsake a possible spiritual answer
to international problems.
Whether or not China would
have invaded India in 1959 and
1962 had India been allowed to
follow her own conscience cannot
be determined. Political realists
and cynics would probably disre-gard
the possibility. To those who
believe in an universal spiritual
force, history may have been chang-ed
and India may have emerged as
the guiding spiritual light in a
dying world.

C. J. Bergstrom, a retired Army
chaplain and Bethel seminary alum-nus,
who not only was present
at the dedication in 1914, but
assisted in the flag-raising.
Since that time, he has held a
number of Conference church pas-torates,
and during the war years,
1942-1947, was a chaplain in the
army. His last pastorate was at
the Ogden Avenue church in Super-ior,
Wisconsin. Major Bergstrom
now resides in Tampa, Florida.
As a military man, Mr. Berg-strom
was particularly concern-ed
that the new Bethel campus
would be properly equipped with
a flag and flagstaff. He contacted
other military chaplainS, also
Bethel seminary graduates, and
thereby, raised sufficient funds
for the equipment.
Climaxing his efforts, Mr. Berg-strom
himself will be present to
assist in raising the flag at the
October 17 dedication service of
the new Seminary.

Our tradition has made it difficult for many
of us to admit that buildings say something. But we
must admit it—whether it be a shack or a cathedral
the form expresses something to every person who
looks at it.
Several years ago when we began planning for the
new campus we were keenly aware that the buildings
would express something to all who would see them.
To conceive the proper form for these buildings took
time, energy and considerable inter-action. We believe
the new seminary campus does express itself in
ways that are exceedingly meaningful.
This campus says something about God. Our
God is characterized by power, eternalness and the
Creator of beauty. As one approaches the buildings,
the appearance of the brick walls, the deep set win-dows,
the brown hue in the color, and the solidity
of the setting suggests that our God is strong.
They also say that He endures because these
buildings are likely to endure. There is beauty in the
whole setting. The buildings fit in the environment.
Some of us wanted the buildings on the tops of the
hills to overlook all the beauty that we saw around
us. We forgot that that would destroy the very beauty
we admired.
The natural beauty is retained and even increased
by the contrast that is observed. The rolling hills
remain; the trees are there; the ruggedness continues;
the buildings are set in the midst of it. The carefully
It was a recently-adopted 48-star

landscaped area will be a contrast to the natural,
rugged beauty.
These buildings also say something about com-munity.
We desired a continuing experience of Koin-onia
or fellowship. That is discovered in a number
of different ways. Spaces are provided for good con-versational
activity in an informal atmosphere. Some
of these areas are carpeted and furnished with easy
chairs.
An open view to the outside beauty through large
windows is evident. That openness is further expres-sed
in the areas where one may look two floors up
to the roof line. That atmosphere makes one feel
ready to be open to other persons. An excellent esprit
de corps will be possible for the total community of
faculty and students alike. An atmosphere of recep-tivity
and friendliness is created by the very form
the buildings have taken.
These buildings further express some of our
academic ideals. The seminary student must become
a mature student. He must become a capable thinker
and leader, for he will lead other people in thought
and life. He must discover his own capacities of
personal study and community sharing. In the light
of this our buildings have been built.
With the exception of two classrooms we have
departed from the traditional. That was done to
encourage dialogue and interaction. The two-level
classrooms make possible a class as large as thirty-five
to get a feeling of thinking together with one
another and the professor.
That experience is also possible
in the other classroom on the
first floor as well as in the sem-inar
rooms on the second floor.
Each has a different plan and form.
The library is geared to independ-ent
study. There are no large ta-bles
for study in large groups.
In some areas there is more
of the cloistered experience that
would suggest, "Now is the time
for work and study." The faculty
offices are of such size that four
or five students may meet with
a faculty member for discussion.
Several conference rooms are also
available in the library for simi-lar
activity.
Our campus suggests our mis-sion.
Our task is to communicate
the Word of God to a world in
need of that Word. We must
train men to become the bridge
between the biblical world and
the contemporary world.
The location of our campus is
ideally situated to suggest that very
thing. We possess a sense of iso-lation
for solid biblical study in
our location, but it is also very
conveniently located within easy
reach of the whole metropolitan
area.

Four-four defense. The guards (G) are responsible to stop
running plays to either side of them. Also the ends (E) must be able
to stop off tackle or end run plays. The inside backers are responsible
for runs anywhere to their side. They serve as a second assault wave after
the big front four hit.
The cornerbacks must make sure no end run gets outside them.
They are to force a runner back towards their teammates. The halfbacks
and safety are insurance against any runner going for a TD.
If the opponent passes, the front four (E's & G's) rush the quarter-back
and the others cover for passes in the areas marked by circles

Bethel fans of the last few years
will quickly recall the easy vic-tories
over Jamestown College.
Such was not always the case. The
1954 football team, captained by
Duwayne Pople, opened the sea-son
with a favorable 6-0 victory
over Itasca, only to be mauled 46-
0 the next weekend by what the
St. Paul papers called "a strong
and formidable Jamestown eleven."
In 1959, on a cold, drizzly, windy
day at Plattville, Wisconsin, the
Bethel Royals became Badger-
Gopher conference champions by
defeating Wisconsin Tech 19-0.
Captain Stu Luckman revealed
after the win, "I'm the happiest
guy in the world."
It was terrific to be captain of
such a trmendous team. I was
proud of the terrific team effort
and each guy did his part well."
That was a big year for the Royals
as they accomplished their first
winning season since 1950 with a
5-3 record.
The 1960's after a slow start,
saw the advent of a new coach,
Owen Halleen, and the tide began
to turn more favorably for Bethel.
The last three years as head coach,
Halleen's teams racked up a whop-ping
21 wins out of 25 games
played. Cumulatively, his record
of 27 wins and 14 losses over a
five year period marked a new
turn toward winning at Bethel.

The 20th Century Church is a well organized body. In order to
obey the Lord's command to "go into all the world . . . " we have
created a machine of bulk and magnitude that would have left the
early apostles breathless.
Our evangelistic boards send men around the world preaching the
gospel. Radio stations, printing presses, airplanes, and hypodermic
needles all are put to use in order that men might hear. In the United
States, almost every special interest group from children to housewives
to businessmen, has a Christian organization geared to reaching it with
the gospel.
Certainly the casual observer would be impressed with our zeal.
The Church is talking, it is singing and preaching its message, doing
what the Lord has commanded.
But many fear for the Church—that it has forgotten something im-portant.
It has forgotten how to be still and listen. We have become a
Church that is talking, talking, talking. But we don't listen, we don't
hear the cries of despair from our world.
The world is rushing along without really knowing where it is
going, and we are rushing right along with it, with two cars in every
garage and tight slacks. Often all that makes us unique is the poetry
we quote along the way.
Our world has a "New Morality" which the. church condones. What
is old is often considered not "with it" in the church as well as out.
We need desperately to take a stand on the principles that our Lord
has revealed.
The Christian gospel can bring renewal and health to all of society,
But, oh how the church needs to sit down and listen. It needs to listen
to its world and its God.

The Bethel cross country team
again added to their 'unblemished'
record last Friday, by outscoring
a strong River Falls State team
45-18.
River Falls took first and second
places over a wet 4.2 mile course
with Berglin taking first in 24:27.
Freshman Dick Olson of Bethel
became the first Bethel harrier
to finish in the top three in the
past two weeks by trotting in in
the fine time of 25:09.
Fourth through eighth places
were taken by River Falls; this
is where Bethel's domination be-gan.
Bob Chryst gazelled across in
ninth position, while Leon Ander-son
was nipping his heels in tenth.
Jim Erickson captured the next
Bethel place with a 29:06 clocking
and Norm "Better Late Than
Never" Kern took the other Bethel
place. He was followed by the rest
of the River Falls team—Bob "Sog-geyfoot"
Dray.
Speaking with Coach Glader fol-lowing
the meet, this writer in-ferred
a general attitude of en-couragement.
This was probably
because of the fine performance
of Olson, and because they had
done this well even without one
of their fine runners, Steve Roe,
who is out with a bad case of the
shin splints.

Fight Valiantly
by Tom Johnson
For the third consecutive week,
Intramural teams clashed for forty
minutes of razzle-dazzle football.
The weather, although a little chil-ly,
held out nicely.
Probably the most outstanding
show of the morning was the
running of Terry Muck, who led
the Squires to a 27-0 shutout of
the Dukes. Going around end,
Terry broke loose many times for
good yardage. When the need
arose, he also executed the half-back
pass with proficiency.
The Dukes were able to ad-vance
the ball very near the
Squire goal line, but were never
able to push it over.
The Jesters, not playing as usual,
overcame the Counts 13-6. Mary
Flodin, scoring on a four yard run,
collected the first score against
the Jesters this year.
The Jesters, however, bounced
back for two scores and outlasted
the determined Counts.
The Knights, led by quarterback
Mel Fahs, beat the Pages 6-0.
The turning point came when
Karl Smith broke loose for a
long gain. Fahs scored, and the
Pages, unable to make a come-back,
lost.
The standings still show the
Squires and Jesters on top with
3-0 records. The Seminary, taking
a bye one week, is close behind
with a 2-0 record.

The Bethel Royals junior varsity
team, carrying a two-year unde-feated
record lot° action last
Thursday, dumped the Penn State
Colts of Stillwater, Minnesota, 13-
12 in a closely guarded contest.
The Colts, hurt by paroles last
year, made use of an excellent
national recruiting system to cap-ture
their strongest team in his..
tory. Led by a fine "bootleggin"
quarterback, Ronnie Holmes, re-cently
drafted from St. Cloud, and
Steamboat Fulton (class of '83),
produced many break-away threats
and set up a tally in the first and
fourth quarters.
The Royals, preparing for their
first game, made their battle-cry
"Cream the Cons." Paced by Rick
Theil (the pulling guard with the
killer instinct), Al "Baby-face" Se-lander,
and Larry "Fingers" Peter-son,
the Royals executed plays
like a charge of nitro-glycerine
exploding through a bank vault.
"Baby-face" plunged over for the
first TD in the second period. In
the fourth period, the Royals drove
to the 35 yard line of Penn State,
where Dave "L-lips" Anderson split
his way to the five.
But a penalty was called back on
the 15 for holding up one of the
Stillwater 11. As the referee paced
off the 15 yd. penalty, one of the
Penn State defenders was heard
to say, "Man, dat's just like gettin'
a reprieve from da governor."
The Royals got rolling again and
"Baby-face" scored the second TD.
"Fingers" then kicked the extra
point over the fence and the
many Penn State fans were heard
yelling, "I'll go get it! I'll go get
it!" The final score was Bethel 13,
Stillwater State Prison 12.
The Royals enjoyed the tough
and clean play of the Stillwater
men and are trying to arrange
another game with Penn State.
However, there seems to be a little
difficulty because the Stillwater
players and coach insist on playing
the game away with their fans
present.
Informed of the impossibility of
this, the Royals expressed a de-sire
to return. The Colt's reply was,
"Don't worry! We'll be here!

_ —
Football is important to me. And like anything that is important
to any person, it is, to use the psychologist's term, ego-involving.
As a person faces an ego-involviing activity, he naturally experiences
some pre-performance stress. For instance, I'll bet music majors have
some tense moments before their senior recital. All of us have "sweated
out" a test in some certain subject.
People face stress in different ways. I suppose my first reaction
is to try to escape. Friday night the game is too far away and I can still
"escape" psychologically. But by Saturday morning, sometimes as
early as seven o'clock, I began to realize that I do, in fact, have a game
to play.
There is no place to which I can escape. I must play a game and
it will require strenuous effort. A little tense knot begins to form in
my stomach.
Training meal is generally at about ten o'clock. By this time I'm a little
more anxious so I gulp my food unless I restrain myself. After the
meal the team meets together with the coach who talks over the game
plan. Then we break up, tape our ankles, shine our football shoes and
pull on our equipment.
After dressing we jog out onto the field for pre-game warm-ups.
Generally this is when we see the other team for the first time. It's
about a half hour before game time. The knot grows a little tighter as
I begin to ask myself, "Can you do the job today, Jim?"
The last 15 minutes before a game are crucial, for it is here that
my attitude finally crystalizes. If I continue to question my ability, I
may end up doubting it. To start a game this way spells trouble, for I
play in a state of helpless shock while my opponents run over me.
Happily, though it happens at times, this is not usually the way I
start. Experience has taught me my abilities so that in the last 15
minutes I often feel an "anxious confidence." I'm confident that I can
play well and I'm anxious to get started.
This anxious desire to play the game is very important. If it grows
inside, my whole system concentrates on playing hard. Adrenalin
shoots through my body. I'm "high" and want to exert myself.
This feeling is the opposite of helpless shock. It's the feeling with
which every player, and with which every coach wants his players to
start.

The Bethel Royals traveled to
Ashland, Wisconsin, Saturday to
battle the ever powerful Northland
College football team. The field
condition was one not entirely un-familiar
to the Royals, as they
have been practicing in mud and
rain for the past three or four
weeks.
_Since the muddy playing con-ditions
almost halted Bethel's
ground game, they were forced
to an aerial attack which brought
victory within their grasp.
Northland scored early in the
second quarter on a one yard
plunge by Martin Domitrodich,
but the extra point attempt fail-ed
as the Royals held.
Later in the same quarter North-land
scored again, this time on a
five yard roll-out by Bob Brown.
Jim Kangas kicked the extra point,
and Northland left the field at
half-time with the score 13-0.
The third quarter was a stand-off
as each team was determined
to keep the other from scoring.
The Royal defense led by veteran
Dave Gehrke succeeded in stal-ling
any further Northland threats.
The Royals' "never - say - die"
brand of football gave them the
impetus to score in the fourth
quarter. Quarterback Bob Nolin
passed to fullback Barnet (Bar-ney)
Cox on a six yard scoring
play. Larry Peterson added the
extra point, leaving the score
13-7 when the final gun sounded.
Outstanding Player for the Roy-als
was quarterback Nolin who
threw 38 passes and completed
26 for 271 yards. His favorite re-cievers
were end John Carmean,
halfback Don Land, and fullback
Cox.
The Royals gained 20 first downs
to Northland's 11, and gained 336
net yards to Northland's 237. All
in all, the Royals left the field
knowing that one or two key de-fensive
lapses had cost them the
game. The Royals are now 1-3 for
the season.

Alumnus Award Being Planned
As Part of Weekend Activities
1964 Homecoming Queen Judy Van Wambeke teaches
little subjects at Falcon Heights Elementary School.
Homecoming: 'Past Is Prologue'
Weekend Theme Offers
Historical Commentary
A "Past Prologue" of Bethel's development will be presented Fri-day,
October 15, at 7:30 p.m. in the Fieldhouse Auditorium as part of
the 1965 Homecoming activities.
The program, staged by Mr. Rott and speech students, attempts to
help bring about an understanding of the present by selecting mile-stones
in Bethel's history and either commenting on them or allowing
the situations to comment on themselves.
"By understanding the past, we know the present," explained
Miriam Carlson, co-chairman of the Homecoming activities.
This year's program is unique for a variety of dramatic techniques
are being used. The opening scene will feature a narration by J. David
Patterson and Bernard Johnson.
Following will be speech choruses, pantomines, other narrations,
drama scenes, oral interpretations, projective slides, music, and tape
recordings. These will be interwoven throughout the program to provide
variety and change of pace.
Using these media, comments will be made on Bethel's academic
history, campus development, and equisition of property. A commen-tary
on different periods of national stress, such as the post-Civil War
era, will be made, with reflection directed also on cultural and moral
changes throughout Bethel's history.
Specific scenes will portray the
first seminary student, the college's
first president, the starting of a
co-op food service at Bethel, and
the moral issue of the 1920's con-cerning
the length of women's
hair.
The presentation of the Home-coming
Court and the coronation
of the queen will be integrated in-to
the program.
The program will be followed at
9:00 p.m. by a campus pepfest to
be held at the south end of the
fieldhouse.
Alumni Banquet
Saturday Night
"Past Prologue" will be high-lighted
by the Homecoming Ban-quet.
Rev. and Mrs. Featherstone
will be host and hostess. Special

This weekend will see many of
Bethel's almni returning to campus
for the Homecoming festivities—a
time of renewing old friendships
and reliving memories.
Host and hostess for the activi-ties
will be Rev. and Mrs. Robert
Featherstone. R e v. Featherstone
was appointed host last July by
Bethel's Alumni Council and has
been preparing programs with the

Rev. Featherstone graduated from
Bethel seminary in 1955. In his
senior year at the seminary he
was Acting Dean of Students for
the College and went on to be
Stewardship Director for the Bap-tist
General Conference. He is now
pastor of the first Baptist Church
of Rochester, Minnesota and is a
member of the Alumni Council.
Beginning alumni activities will

President Lundquist will speak
briefly at the informal gather-ings.
Highlight of the weekend will
be Saturday night's banquet. Of
special interest at the banquet
will be the announcement of the
first Alumnus of the Year. The
selection is made by the Alumni
Awards Committee composed of
three members of the Alumni
Council, three alumni-at-large,
and one faculty member.
The Alumnus of the year is
chosen on the basis of the follow-i
n g considerations: outstanding
achievement within the alumnus'
chosen field of endeavor, signifi-cant
contributions and public ser-vice
benefitting his community,
continued interest and loyalty to
Bethel.
Rev. Akenson, Pastor of the first
Baptist Church of Minneapolis, will
keynote the Banquet with his din-ner
address. He is a former Presi-dent
of Northwestern Bible Col-lege
and is presently Chairman
of the Board of Northwestern Bible

dedication, throughout the Baptist
General Conference, of the new
Arden Hills campus of Bethel
Theological Seminary. Each Con-ference
church throughout t h e
world has been requested to par-ticipate
vicariously in its own ser-vice
of dedication.
At three o'clock the program
will begin at the Arden Hills Cam-pus

American 'Containment' Policy Called
Contributing Factor In Asian Conflict
This is the second in a series of two articles
by college senior David Beek on the India-Pakistan
Dispute.
He has recently returned from a year of study
and research near Hyderabad, South India.
by Dave Beek
The United States' foreign policy in Asia has
been more responsible for the recent conflict between
India and Pakistan than most Americans realize or
are willing to, admit.
After the tragic events accompanying partition,
India and Pakistan turned to the urgent problems
of nation building and domestic development. The
domestic needs were so momentous that neither
could afford diverting resources for defense pur-poses.
By following a "non-aligned" policy in the bi-polar
world, they sought to reduce the tension
between themselves and to avoid becoming involved
in the Soviet-American duel.
The United States, in self-interest, was urging
the non-aligned Asian countries to accept American
military aid and to join security pacts for protection
against Communist aggression.
Nehru asked the United States not to give
military aid to either India or Pakistan; he warned
that this would eventually be used, not against Russian
or Chinese aggression, but against each other. The
United States ignored his plea.
India resisted American pressures until after
the Chinese invasions of 1959 and 1962. Pakistan,
due to its more Islamic, militaristic tradition and
to its felt inferior position, having only one quarter
the population of India, yielded in 1954 by accept-ing
American armaments and bases and by joining
SEATO and CENTO.
Indian-Pakistan and Indian-American tensions rose
sharply. India was forced to seek protection against
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Ban-tan
Books, 1946, pp. 177 (paperback; $.60).
Abolition of Man by C. S. Lewis. Macmillan,
1947, pp. 121 (paperback, $.95).
Utilitarianism and theism are
strange bed-fellows, but Huxley and
Lewis belong side by side on your
book shelf.
Lewis' starting point is an Eng-lish
reader which he calls The
Green Book by Gaius and Titius.
His theme is the total absurdity of
the current theory, "all statements
of value are totally subjective."
Therefore "mother" is of no
more or less value than God,
pleasure, treason, objectivity, or
life. "But this is not necessarily
a refutation of subjectivism
about values as a theory. The
true doctrine might be a docrine
which, if we accept, we die" (p.
39).
Lewis criticizes the subjectivists
further because, "However subjec-tive
they may be about some tradi-tional
value, Gaius and Titius have
shown by the very act of writing
The Green Book that there must
be some other values about which
they are not subjective at all" (p.
39).
So where do they find non-sub-jective
values—in some statement
of fact? But how does 'ought' come
from 'is'? Perhaps instinct is a
proper base. But our instincts are
very much at war. Which ones?
Unless we admit that there are
some values which need no ra-tional
defense—which are the
very foundation of all reason—
we shall be totally at the mercy
of our desires.
Lewis argues that the result
of man's conquest of nature is
the dehumanization of man. Man
is regarded as an animal fit for the
dissecting table or for laboratory
experiments.
The government will be able to
condition man as the psychology
department conditions pigeons. In
other words, a sort of Brave New
World. If there is no value how
shall the conditioners choose to
mold men? They do as they wish.
"We find ... (the Conditioners)
subjected to that in themselves
which is purely 'natural' — to
their irrational impulses" (p. 80).
"It is not that they are bad men.
They are not men at all" (p. 77).
The case is clear. Unless there is
some eternal good, true, and beau-tiful
(which he calls "Tao") we face
meaninglessness. The modern
world trades the threat of hell for
the certainty of non-existence.
Huxley sees the same vision of
man's predicament. Man is con-quered
by men who use science as
wizards use magic—as an instru-ment
of personal power.
Men sacrifice their freedom and
art for stability and contentment.
Society is sterile and antiseptic
without purity. Science is not for
man, but man for science.
In the foreword to this edition
Huxley gives an alternative to

of life being: "How will
this thought or action contribute
to, or interfere with, the achieve-ment,
by me and the greatest
possible number of other indi-viduals,
of man's Final End?" (p.
ix.)
The resemblance between Huxley
and Lewis is elusive. Both use the
term "Tao" for the universe's non-personal
moral order. Both charge
scientism with abolishing man.
Neither holds with the confident
intellectual climate of the day.
But to try to make Huxley a
Christian apologist is to fail. He
proposes to substitute Brave New

Recent College Changes
Reflect 'Prologue' Spirit
Homecoming 1965 will go down as a major step forward in
the unification of the Baptist General Conference with its
institutions of higher education.
Seminary Dedication Sunday morning will dawn upon the
unique occurance of pastors around the nation leading their
congregations in simultaneous words of dedication while in St.
Faul the capstone of our educational program is realized.
Meanwhile, alumni, parents, and friends of Bethel con-verge
on the college campus to consider the next seven years
on this campus as a special prologue, in the context of the
past, to the erection of the new college complex in the
Centennial Year.
Several bright spots of the recent past spring to mind: The,
continuing strong relationship between college and seminary
in this first year of separation, college library improvements in
space and planning, and the institution of a summer Student
Missionary Program.
And if these gains of the past year or two are indicative of
the type of growth to be expected in the seven year Prologue
to the new Bethel College, the future of Christian higher
education in the evangelical tradition of our Swedish forefathers
is bright indeed.
The incorporation of greater numbers of qualified sem-inarians
into the college educational program as instructors
and discussion leaders is to be applauded.
May it be followed by upper division inter-disciplinary
seminars which ultimately find their connecting links in de-votion
to the same Truth—perhaps through the leadership of
men thoroughly trained in theology and Biblical studies as
well as advanced study in their chosen discipline.
The provision of more floor and shelf space in the college
library as well as the creation of the joint cataloguing system
are worthy of praise. May they be followed by increased co-operation
and working relationships among the private colleges
of the Twin Cities, such as inter-college borrowing cards.
Macalester, Hamline, St. Thomas and St. Catherine's, for
instance, now share supporting resource facilities for their
newly inaugurated, co-operative area studies program.
And the purchase of a card catalogue listing the main
holdings of the James Hill Reference Library can be seen in
the light of convenience for advanced research on this campus,
and good stewardship and planning for the Arden Hills campus.
The Chapel Committee, too, deserves praise for the various
successful ventures of the student missionaries. May the pro-gram
be expanded in coming years to other hemispheres, per-haps
with tuition breaks for returning missionaries and more
systematic back-to-the community reporting of projects.
And may a large advance orientation period in the history
and culture of the respective countries, as well as more solidly
defined academic pursuits in the countries, yield opportunities
to introduce the new Bethel College to potential foreign
students around the world.
Pakistan by accepting British aid. As the arms race
between the two countries quickened, it became
increasingly difficult to settle the Kashmir problem
peacefully.
Nehru's prophecy was fulfilled, when during the
recent Indian-Pakistan conflict, the massive military
aid was used against each other.
When assessing American foreign policy during
the fifties, one wonders what blinded the American
people from seeing these realities of international
politics.
A major factor was a schizophrenic view of the
world: the extremes of pessimism and optimism, the
paradoxical concentration on certain facts, on the
one hand, and complete disregard for certain facts
on the other hand. The simple, single tracked Ameri-can
mind related the major evils of the world to
Communism.
On the one hand, our optimism saw an ideal
world rid of the major evils with the destruction of
Communism. Our faith in the peace loving nature
of countries absent of Communist influence overrode
entirely such inescapable facts as the Hindu-Moslem
conflict in 1947 which killed a half million persons
and displaced ten million more in the two countries.
On the other hand, our overly pessimistic view
of the world led many Americans to believe the
non-American countries confronted by a Communist
power were essentially puppets of a Satanic power.
A large portion of the American people believed
that they were a chosen people, the chosen guard-ians
of the good in the world. This self-conceit, no
doubt, grew out of being over-awed by our military
power.

Missionary-In-Residence Edwards
Teaches Seminary During Furlough
Rev. Paul Edwards, missionary
from India, will teach in Bethel
Theological Seminary both winter
and spring quarters.
Rev. Edwards holds a B.A. de-gree
from Wheaton and a B.D.
from Bethel Seminary. He also has
a M.A. from George Washington
University, where he studied Com-parative
Religions.
Bethel College alumni will re-member
Rev. Edwards as a
Bethel Bible teacher and basket-ball
and baseball coach from
1944-1950.
It was in 1950 that Rev. Edwards
left for India where he has con-tinued
to serve. His work has
included both educational and ev-angelistic
ministries. Mrs. Edwards
is a medical doctor and has faith-fully
served with her husband on
the mission field. They are now
back in the States on their second
furlough.
The two classes that Rev. Ed-wards
will teach in the Seminary
are Challenge to World Missions
and Challenge of Non-Christian Re-ligions.
These will be taught win-
How to Become a Bishop Without Being
Religious by Charles Merrill Smith. Doubleday,
1965 ($3.50).
This latest "success manual" is a
tragedy.
It claims to give the single sem-inarian
the steps to success in
climbing the clerical ladder. It ana-lyzes
the proper methods of letting
sleeping congregations lie and
overcoming the antagonism or com-peting
clerics.
Charles Merrill Smith is pastor
of the Wesley Methodist Church
in Bloomington, Illinois. He "has
a lover's quarrel with the
church" and HOW TO BECOME
... is both the better and the
worse for it.
First, the virtues of this book:
its satire is to the point—and the
right points too. There are several
subtitles from Chapter Four, "The
Administration of a Church, which
is a polite phrase for raising mon-ey:
The status church ... Picking
the right Negro ... The men to cul-tivate."
"Selecting the Clerical Wife"
would seem to be a vital chapter
for the single theologue. Smith
argues here that the prospective
minister MUST marry; secondly,
that he will be well advised to
avoid certain kinds of girls; third,
that he ought to seek one who
wants to marry a minister.
Therefore "the proper se-quence
of events is to select a
girl who meets the predetermin-ed
specifications and then fall in
love with her, rather than allow
your romantic fancy to light
upon just any young female who
happens to appeal to you for ir-relevant
reasons" (p. 21).
Smith also jibes at subject-cen-tered
worship, provides a key to
properly "spiritual" words, and
outlines "the techniques of being
unmistakably clerical!)
The breadth of Smith's discus-sion
includes all the appropriate
concerns of a "standard-brand"
minister: choosing a car, non-of-fensive
art, and "making the major
leagues." His perception is acute,
but his satire is merely broad.
This is the principle artistic
attempt to satirize all the aspects
of clerical life makes this appear
ter and spring quarters, respective-ly.

European Study
Plan Announced
Miss Barbara Weiss, field repre-sentative
of the Scandinavian Sem-inar,
visits Bethel campus Wednes-day,
October 20, to interest stu-dents
and faculty in a new educa-tional
adventure.
The program she promotes pro-vides
students with the opportunity
to attend school in Denmark, Fin-land,
Norway, or Sweden for nine
months while living with a native
family.
Information on location and
time will be posted when estab-lished.
Requests for personal in-terviews
with Miss Weiss are
handled through the Student
Service office.
The nine-month study program,
from August to May, is open to stu-dents
without previous knowledge
in the language. The applicant re-ceives
appropriate instructional
material upon acceptance to ac-quire
workable skills in the lan-guage.
With a grasp of the language
and a feeling for the Scandin-avian
world, the student benefits
from the FOLKEHOJSKOLE'S
presentation o f Scandinavia
through lectures, discussions,
seminars and tours.
The Scandinavian Seminar or-ganization
makes scholarship loans
available to students needing finan-cial
assistance. The interest-free
loans are payable three years after
termination of the student's study
year.
part of his task here as recruit-ment.
Rev. Edwards' presence on the
Seminary campus is viewed as a
definite aid to the students by pro-viding
a meaningful encounter with
the problems and challenges of the
mission field. He will be a signifi-cant
asset to the kind of prepara-tion
that is being fostered by the
Seminary educational program.
their performances on the verbal
section of the Scholastic Aptitude
Test, and sufficient correlation ex-ists
to demonstrate the validity of
the examination.
A mastery of the content of this
program affords the student a
minimum comprehension of Eng-lish
grammar and usage essential
to his performing acceptably in
college work.
Inasmuch as the English Depart-ment
is insufficiently staffed to do
remedial teaching and inasmuch
as the material can be mastered
with greater facility by the pro-grammed
approach, no portion of
the classroom time of the course
is allocated to teaching from this
textbook.
Six special help sessions, how-ever,
have been scheduled either
on Saturday mornings or on free
periods during the week to deal
with student questions. The in-structors
in the English Depart-ment
are also available to give
individual help.
Registration for Freshman Eng-lish
103 is considered probation-ary
until the student demon-strated
his minimum proficiency
in the rudiments of English
grammar and usage.
Hence, those whose scores were
poor on the first examination must
perform satisfactorily on the retest
in order to validate their registra-tion
in the course. Students who
are unable to do so will be asked
to drop Freshman English 103 and
may not register for Freshman
English 104.

The floor of the senate this week
was clogged with a number of
touchy issues as well as the usual
number of not so touchy issues.
One, a motion to have the student
lounges in the college building
open Friday and Saturday evenings
until 12:00 p.m. as couple's lounge
was passed 8-5.
As usual, however, this only
means that this will become a pro-posal
to the administration who
can in turn be counted upon to
act within the full convictions of
their conscience. Don't count on a

Wednesday, October 13, 1965
Staunch Dodger fans gathered at
the Hotel St. Paul to greet the
players as they returned from the
first and unsuccessful Series game.
Many of the approximately thirty
Bethel students were native Calif-ornians.
They wanted the team to
know there was an enthusiastic, if
small, group of fans even in the
Twins' own territory.
The escapade began when fresh-man
Barbara Elliff called the
hotel early Wednesday morning
to arrange an appointment for
an interview. She talked first
with Johnny Roseboro, whom she
had awaken with the call. He
referred her to Wally Moon,
Dodger player representative.
Barb told him that even though
the group of supporters was in the
minority, they were "pluggin' all
the way." "That s right ma am,
everything is going to be all right!"
The students, congregated in the
lobby of the hotel at four-thirty
with souvenir baseballs in hand.
After a forty-five minute wait, the
players arrived and though disap-pointed
with the results of the
game, stopped to sign autographs.
son be the person tentatively
considered as the next editor.
One gets the feeling after at-tending
a few senate meetings,
that the majority of items each
week mold themselves into a tow-ering
monument of indecision.
They tell me this is a hazard of
democratic government.
Perhaps postponement of issues
is a good thing since it gives sen-ators
a chance to think things
through. As a matter of fact, this
very thing is written into the
rules of order.
Only when one leaves a sen-ate
meeting in a state of utter
confusion does he question whe-ther
or not democracy is func-tionally
adequate in all situa-tions..
One thing is certain, however,
and that concerns the matter of
disappearing trays. The snow isn't
even flying yet, gang; let's eat on
trays at least until that time!
Jim Lefebvre, candidate for Rookie
of the Year of 1965, quipped that
it was "just one of those days."
Later in the evening Wally
Moon spoke to Barb Elliff, Cindi
Weddle, Lyn Eichenberger, and
Anita Palm in a personal inter-view.
Knowing the mechanical
responses to the game already,
questions were aimed at finding
deeper feelings.
He said the team morale was not
like a college level team spirit that
must be worked up every Friday
night. After a period of time, a
player on a professional level
learns to always be "psyched" for
a game.
Venturing deeper, it was asked,
"What is the religious spirit of the
team?" In answering, he said sev-eral
of the men on the team were
"deeply religious" although the
subject was rarely discussed.
He himself is a Methodist and
a member of the Fellowship of
Christian Athletes with about
five other team members. Reli-gious
influence, he felt, w a s
best seen in each player's re-action
to practice and game sit-uations.
Self-control is probably
the hardest virtue to come by
and is "a real test of religious
training."
Having this insight of a baseball
team and having briefly glimps-ed
its members, in a once in a
lifetime experience, the weary
Bethelites returned to campus to
write jealous brothers and friends.
AsianlMisuse
cont'd from page 2
Moslem violence in Bengal was
overlooked by most Americans.
America's policy of relying on
military force in South Asia de-feated
America's goals, by aliena-ting,
first, India and more recently,
Pakistan. More tragic yet for the
entire world, it forced India to
forsake a possible spiritual answer
to international problems.
Whether or not China would
have invaded India in 1959 and
1962 had India been allowed to
follow her own conscience cannot
be determined. Political realists
and cynics would probably disre-gard
the possibility. To those who
believe in an universal spiritual
force, history may have been chang-ed
and India may have emerged as
the guiding spiritual light in a
dying world.

and during the war years,
1942-1947, was a chaplain in the
army. His last pastorate was at
the Ogden Avenue church in Super-ior,
Wisconsin. Major Bergstrom
now resides in Tampa, Florida.
As a military man, Mr. Berg-strom
was particularly concern-ed
that the new Bethel campus
would be properly equipped with
a flag and flagstaff. He contacted
other military chaplainS, also
Bethel seminary graduates, and
thereby, raised sufficient funds
for the equipment.
Climaxing his efforts, Mr. Berg-strom
himself will be present to
assist in raising the flag at the
October 17 dedication service of
the new Seminary.

by Dr. Gordon Johnson
Our tradition has made it difficult for many
of us to admit that buildings say something. But we
must admit it—whether it be a shack or a cathedral
the form expresses something to every person who
looks at it.
Several years ago when we began planning for the
new campus we were keenly aware that the buildings
would express something to all who would see them.
To conceive the proper form for these buildings took
time, energy and considerable inter-action. We believe
the new seminary campus does express itself in
ways that are exceedingly meaningful.
This campus says something about God. Our
God is characterized by power, eternalness and the
Creator of beauty. As one approaches the buildings,
the appearance of the brick walls, the deep set win-dows,
the brown hue in the color, and the solidity
of the setting suggests that our God is strong.
They also say that He endures because these
buildings are likely to endure. There is beauty in the
whole setting. The buildings fit in the environment.
Some of us wanted the buildings on the tops of the
hills to overlook all the beauty that we saw around
us. We forgot that that would destroy the very beauty
we admired.
The natural beauty is retained and even increased
by the contrast that is observed. The rolling hills
remain; the trees are there; the ruggedness continues;
the buildings are set in the midst of it. The carefully
It was a recently-adopted 48-star
flag which, on November 22, 1914,
was initially unfurled during the
dedication service of the newly

on October 17, 1965, another flag-raising

landscaped area will be a contrast to the natural,
rugged beauty.
These buildings also say something about com-munity.
We desired a continuing experience of Koin-onia
or fellowship. That is discovered in a number
of different ways. Spaces are provided for good con-versational
activity in an informal atmosphere. Some
of these areas are carpeted and furnished with easy
chairs.
An open view to the outside beauty through large
windows is evident. That openness is further expres-sed
in the areas where one may look two floors up
to the roof line. That atmosphere makes one feel
ready to be open to other persons. An excellent esprit
de corps will be possible for the total community of
faculty and students alike. An atmosphere of recep-tivity
and friendliness is created by the very form
the buildings have taken.
These buildings further express some of our
academic ideals. The seminary student must become
a mature student. He must become a capable thinker
and leader, for he will lead other people in thought
and life. He must discover his own capacities of
personal study and community sharing. In the light
of this our buildings have been built.
With the exception of two classrooms we have
departed from the traditional. That was done to
encourage dialogue and interaction. The two-level
classrooms make possible a class as large as thirty-five
to get a feeling of thinking together with one
another and the professor.
That experience is also possible
in the other classroom on the
first floor as well as in the sem-inar
rooms on the second floor.
Each has a different plan and form.
The library is geared to independ-ent
study. There are no large ta-bles
for study in large groups.
In some areas there is more
of the cloistered experience that
would suggest, "Now is the time
for work and study." The faculty
offices are of such size that four
or five students may meet with
a faculty member for discussion.
Several conference rooms are also
available in the library for simi-lar
activity.
Our campus suggests our mis-sion.
Our task is to communicate
the Word of God to a world in
need of that Word. We must
train men to become the bridge
between the biblical world and
the contemporary world.
The location of our campus is
ideally situated to suggest that very
thing. We possess a sense of iso-lation
for solid biblical study in
our location, but it is also very
conveniently located within easy
reach of the whole metropolitan
area.
trust it will always be used to the
glory of our Lord.

Four-four defense. The guards (G) are responsible to stop
running plays to either side of them. Also the ends (E) must be able
to stop off tackle or end run plays. The inside backers are responsible
for runs anywhere to their side. They serve as a second assault wave after
the big front four hit.
The cornerbacks must make sure no end run gets outside them.
They are to force a runner back towards their teammates. The halfbacks
and safety are insurance against any runner going for a TD.
If the opponent passes, the front four (E's & G's) rush the quarter-back
and the others cover for passes in the areas marked by circles

Duwayne Pople, opened the sea-son
with a favorable 6-0 victory
over Itasca, only to be mauled 46-
0 the next weekend by what the
St. Paul papers called "a strong
and formidable Jamestown eleven."
In 1959, on a cold, drizzly, windy
day at Plattville, Wisconsin, the
Bethel Royals became Badger-
Gopher conference champions by
defeating Wisconsin Tech 19-0.
Captain Stu Luckman revealed
after the win, "I'm the happiest
guy in the world."
It was terrific to be captain of
such a trmendous team. I was
proud of the terrific team effort
and each guy did his part well."
That was a big year for the Royals
as they accomplished their first
winning season since 1950 with a
5-3 record.
The 1960's after a slow start,
saw the advent of a new coach,
Owen Halleen, and the tide began
to turn more favorably for Bethel.
The last three years as head coach,
Halleen's teams racked up a whop-ping
21 wins out of 25 games

of 27 wins and 14 losses over a

The 20th Century Church is a well organized body. In order to
obey the Lord's command to "go into all the world . . . " we have
created a machine of bulk and magnitude that would have left the
early apostles breathless.
Our evangelistic boards send men around the world preaching the
gospel. Radio stations, printing presses, airplanes, and hypodermic
needles all are put to use in order that men might hear. In the United
States, almost every special interest group from children to housewives
to businessmen, has a Christian organization geared to reaching it with
the gospel.
Certainly the casual observer would be impressed with our zeal.
The Church is talking, it is singing and preaching its message, doing
what the Lord has commanded.
But many fear for the Church—that it has forgotten something im-portant.
It has forgotten how to be still and listen. We have become a
Church that is talking, talking, talking. But we don't listen, we don't
hear the cries of despair from our world.
The world is rushing along without really knowing where it is
going, and we are rushing right along with it, with two cars in every
garage and tight slacks. Often all that makes us unique is the poetry
we quote along the way.
Our world has a "New Morality" which the. church condones. What
is old is often considered not "with it" in the church as well as out.
We need desperately to take a stand on the principles that our Lord
has revealed.
The Christian gospel can bring renewal and health to all of society,
But, oh how the church needs to sit down and listen. It needs to listen
to its world and its God.

First Bethel Man Finishes Third
by Lantz Leonard
The Bethel cross country team
again added to their 'unblemished'
record last Friday, by outscoring
a strong River Falls State team
45-18.
River Falls took first and second
places over a wet 4.2 mile course
with Berglin taking first in 24:27.
Freshman Dick Olson of Bethel
became the first Bethel harrier
to finish in the top three in the
past two weeks by trotting in in
the fine time of 25:09.
Fourth through eighth places
were taken by River Falls; this
is where Bethel's domination be-gan.
Bob Chryst gazelled across in
ninth position, while Leon Ander-son
was nipping his heels in tenth.
Jim Erickson captured the next
Bethel place with a 29:06 clocking
and Norm "Better Late Than
Never" Kern took the other Bethel
place. He was followed by the rest
of the River Falls team—Bob "Sog-geyfoot"
Dray.
Speaking with Coach Glader fol-lowing
the meet, this writer in-ferred
a general attitude of en-couragement.
This was probably
because of the fine performance
of Olson, and because they had
done this well even without one
of their fine runners, Steve Roe,
who is out with a bad case of the
shin splints.
Glader is hoping the team will
be at full strength by this week-end

Fight Valiantly
by Tom Johnson
For the third consecutive week,
Intramural teams clashed for forty
minutes of razzle-dazzle football.
The weather, although a little chil-ly,
held out nicely.
Probably the most outstanding
show of the morning was the
running of Terry Muck, who led
the Squires to a 27-0 shutout of
the Dukes. Going around end,
Terry broke loose many times for
good yardage. When the need
arose, he also executed the half-back
pass with proficiency.
The Dukes were able to ad-vance
the ball very near the
Squire goal line, but were never
able to push it over.
The Jesters, not playing as usual,
overcame the Counts 13-6. Mary
Flodin, scoring on a four yard run,
collected the first score against
the Jesters this year.
The Jesters, however, bounced
back for two scores and outlasted
the determined Counts.
The Knights, led by quarterback
Mel Fahs, beat the Pages 6-0.
The turning point came when
Karl Smith broke loose for a
long gain. Fahs scored, and the
Pages, unable to make a come-back,
lost.
The standings still show the
Squires and Jesters on top with
3-0 records. The Seminary, taking
a bye one week, is close behind
with a 2-0 record.

The Bethel Royals junior varsity
team, carrying a two-year unde-feated
record lot° action last
Thursday, dumped the Penn State
Colts of Stillwater, Minnesota, 13-
12 in a closely guarded contest.
The Colts, hurt by paroles last
year, made use of an excellent
national recruiting system to cap-ture
their strongest team in his..
tory. Led by a fine "bootleggin"
quarterback, Ronnie Holmes, re-cently
drafted from St. Cloud, and
Steamboat Fulton (class of '83),
produced many break-away threats
and set up a tally in the first and
fourth quarters.
The Royals, preparing for their
first game, made their battle-cry
"Cream the Cons." Paced by Rick
Theil (the pulling guard with the
killer instinct), Al "Baby-face" Se-lander,
and Larry "Fingers" Peter-son,
the Royals executed plays
like a charge of nitro-glycerine
exploding through a bank vault.
"Baby-face" plunged over for the
first TD in the second period. In
the fourth period, the Royals drove
to the 35 yard line of Penn State,
where Dave "L-lips" Anderson split
his way to the five.
But a penalty was called back on
the 15 for holding up one of the
Stillwater 11. As the referee paced
off the 15 yd. penalty, one of the
Penn State defenders was heard
to say, "Man, dat's just like gettin'
a reprieve from da governor."
The Royals got rolling again and
"Baby-face" scored the second TD.
"Fingers" then kicked the extra
point over the fence and the
many Penn State fans were heard
yelling, "I'll go get it! I'll go get
it!" The final score was Bethel 13,
Stillwater State Prison 12.
The Royals enjoyed the tough
and clean play of the Stillwater
men and are trying to arrange
another game with Penn State.
However, there seems to be a little
difficulty because the Stillwater
players and coach insist on playing
the game away with their fans
present.
Informed of the impossibility of
this, the Royals expressed a de-sire
to return. The Colt's reply was,
"Don't worry! We'll be here!

Football is important to me. And like anything that is important
to any person, it is, to use the psychologist's term, ego-involving.
As a person faces an ego-involviing activity, he naturally experiences
some pre-performance stress. For instance, I'll bet music majors have
some tense moments before their senior recital. All of us have "sweated
out" a test in some certain subject.
People face stress in different ways. I suppose my first reaction
is to try to escape. Friday night the game is too far away and I can still
"escape" psychologically. But by Saturday morning, sometimes as
early as seven o'clock, I began to realize that I do, in fact, have a game
to play.
There is no place to which I can escape. I must play a game and
it will require strenuous effort. A little tense knot begins to form in
my stomach.
Training meal is generally at about ten o'clock. By this time I'm a little
more anxious so I gulp my food unless I restrain myself. After the
meal the team meets together with the coach who talks over the game
plan. Then we break up, tape our ankles, shine our football shoes and
pull on our equipment.
After dressing we jog out onto the field for pre-game warm-ups.
Generally this is when we see the other team for the first time. It's
about a half hour before game time. The knot grows a little tighter as
I begin to ask myself, "Can you do the job today, Jim?"
The last 15 minutes before a game are crucial, for it is here that
my attitude finally crystalizes. If I continue to question my ability, I
may end up doubting it. To start a game this way spells trouble, for I
play in a state of helpless shock while my opponents run over me.
Happily, though it happens at times, this is not usually the way I
start. Experience has taught me my abilities so that in the last 15
minutes I often feel an "anxious confidence." I'm confident that I can
play well and I'm anxious to get started.
This anxious desire to play the game is very important. If it grows
inside, my whole system concentrates on playing hard. Adrenalin
shoots through my body. I'm "high" and want to exert myself.
This feeling is the opposite of helpless shock. It's the feeling with
which every player, and with which every coach wants his players to
start.

Cougars invade the familiar
confines of St. Paul's Midway Sta-dium
October 16, in an attempt
to undermine the Royals' "Munch
Morris" campaign. Game time for
the annual Royal Homecoming clas-sic
is 1:30 p.m.
Cougar's Coach Rich Borstad
brings a formidable cast of nine-teen
lettermen and seven seniors
to town in an effort to get on the
winning track. Winless in their
first three outings by scores of
14-7 to Moorhead State, 54-0 to
Wayne State (Nebraska), and 34-7
to Yankton, the Cougars seek re-venge
for the 33-6 setback admin-istered
them by Bethel in 1964.
Cougar team captain Dennis
Malherek, 6'2" 182 pound senior
letterman from Truman, Minne-sota,
mans the quarterback spot.
Seven other lettermen assume
starting roles in an offensive
lineup which includes three
freshmen, five sophomores, and
three seniors.
The "all-Minnesotan" starting
lineup also includes such stalwarts
as center Rick Fluegel, 180 pound
four-year man from Donnelly, and
guard Bob Albrecht, 185 pound
senior from Alexandria.
Melherek's passing is comple-mented
by fullback Steve Trites'
running. Trites, 175 pound hard-nosed
sophomore from Henning,
is the Cougars' leading rusher thus
far.
From end to end, the offensive
line averages 194 pounds per
man, the heaviest of which are

The Bethel Royals traveled to
Ashland, Wisconsin, Saturday to
battle the ever powerful Northland
College football team. The field
condition was one not entirely un-familiar
to the Royals, as they
have been practicing in mud and
rain for the past three or four
weeks.
_Since the muddy playing con-ditions
almost halted Bethel's
ground game, they were forced
to an aerial attack which brought
victory within their grasp.
Northland scored early in the
second quarter on a one yard
plunge by Martin Domitrodich,
but the extra point attempt fail-ed
as the Royals held.
Later in the same quarter North-land
scored again, this time on a
five yard roll-out by Bob Brown.
Jim Kangas kicked the extra point,
and Northland left the field at
half-time with the score 13-0.
The third quarter was a stand-off
as each team was determined
to keep the other from scoring.
The Royal defense led by veteran
Dave Gehrke succeeded in stal-ling
any further Northland threats.
The Royals' "never - say - die"
brand of football gave them the
impetus to score in the fourth
quarter. Quarterback Bob Nolin
passed to fullback Barnet (Bar-ney)
Cox on a six yard scoring
play. Larry Peterson added the
extra point, leaving the score
13-7 when the final gun sounded.
Outstanding Player for the Roy-als
was quarterback Nolin who
threw 38 passes and completed
26 for 271 yards. His favorite re-cievers
were end John Carmean,
halfback Don Land, and fullback
Cox.
The Royals gained 20 first downs
to Northland's 11, and gained 336
net yards to Northland's 237. All
in all, the Royals left the field
knowing that one or two key de-fensive
lapses had cost them the
game. The Royals are now 1-3 for
the season.
